A message from our patrons
Revd Dr Clifford and Monica Hill
Pressure
is mounting to make abortion in this country legal up to
birth. Similarly, in Northern Ireland we have now seen a move to bring
in abortion up to birth by the back door, using amendments to the
Northern Ireland (Executive Formation) Bill. The current time limit for
abortion in the UK is set at 24 weeks. Last year in England and Wales
we had 200,608 abortions.
In 2017 there were 755,042live births – the lowest number since 2006 (https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity
/populationandmigration/populationestimates/datasets/
vitalstatisticspopulationandhealthreferencetables). 98% of abortions are performed for social reasons - all of which, taken together, means that last year around one quarter of conceptions would have been terminated, for the simple reason it was not the ‘right time’ for that child to be born.
Increasingly, with the phenomenal advances in medicine, we are seeing
babies born at 21 weeks not just surviving, but growing up to be healthy
and strong. Is it then right that we are depriving so many unborn of
the right to life? Who knows what their contribution to society might
not have been had they been allowed to live?
Please make every effort to come to VfJUK’s important conference exploring this genocidal slaughter of the unborn.
